lyrics

I was eighteen, you were one year younger
We came uptown, no one could steal our thunder
We went downtown

Remember that time waiting for the bus?
Please think hard, you surely must:
We had to wait forever in the sun
While we were standing there
The people walking by would stare
But you, you didn't care
You'd only look at me
Instead of waiting for that bus to come
We could have struck out on the run
Left all our clothes and gone downtown

You laughed and smiled and pulled the sheets
The lines and dips, your shape beneath
Your beauty and your grace, kept me whole
Midnight drives with the windows down
You're fast asleep, without a sound
All roads, they lead downtown

Two years down the line
I still wish you were mine
I'd love to wait forever in the sun
But now you are long gone
And I don't even see the dawn.
Instead I walk the streets of downtown

The one last favor I'll ask of you
Is: meet me on the avenue
And treat me as the man that you knew.
Treat me as the man that you knew
As the man that I was,
As the man that is gone.
